The Oscars

A quickie post of my thoughts on the Oscars last night.

I so wanted Anne and James to do a good job, and sadly, they just didn't cut it. the montage was promising but then..... Was James Franco stoned? He didn't look into the camera, he looked as though he couldn't be bothered, which left Anne looking as though she was trying too hard, which you can understand given James performance. He even jetted straight out of LA as soon as the Awards were finished saying he had to get back to class. Bring back Hugh I say!

Highlights were:

Helen Mirren and Russell Brand presenting - love them both. They are actually bloody funny, without trying or forcing. Got to love the Brits

Speaking of Brits, Jude Law and Robert Downey Jr had lots of fun paying out on each other.

And still further, what a gorgeous winner Colin Firth was. Absolutely great speech. Ooh, he;s so lovely!

Loved both Jeff Bridges and Sandra Bullock presenting.

Gwyneth singing...not so much thanks!!!

loved Mila kunis. do you think her and Justin Timberlake are doing it?

loved the simplicity of Jennifer Lawrence (see below) Even though as someone mentioned, it was a little Baywatch, I thought she looked gorgeous and very appropriate for her 20 years.

I may not be popular with this comment, but I think the Kirk Douglas thing went on way too long. People were saying he was so cute, but seriously, what's cute about some poor bastard who can't speak due to having a stroke?

Melissa Leo's speech, F bomb or not, too long and way too much

Ok, so that's all for now, if I think of anything really important that I have missed, i'll let you know!
